Why do youi want to add MMO? It's usually only added if you are having "Vanagon Clattering Valve Syndrome". Even then there is other recourse. To hold the valve clattering at bay here is what I do. Mann or Mahle oil filter only. Use 15W50 Mobil One Synthetic Fill to 1/2 quart low run it there all the time (more and it throws it out) Change oil regularly - by that I mean stay on schedule by the owners manual and the Bentley, not by the oil manufacturers recommendations. Only once in a blue moon do I get the clattering syndrome, and even then it's usually because I have neglected to change oil on time. If all this doesn't work, THEN use the MMO.
